Sacramento newbie looking for a MD buddy

Hi, I'm from Sacramento and have been metal detecting for about a month. I have found a small pile of coins, small 925 silver charm, a fishing weight and a squashed penny! I'm absolutely hooked! I have been lucky enough to have found something every time I have been out so far. I Would love to hook up with someone (experienced or noob like me) any where in the bay, sac, placerville area or any where close. (within a few hour drive) I'm a 37 yr. old male very easy going. I use a garrett ace 350, Shoot me an email if you want to hunt together.

Thanks, Calvin

Wet sand....

The ATPro doesn't work very well in the wet sand but works great in the dry sand on California beaches. I buy most of my stuff online but there is a place in Temecula I think it is call American Prospector and they have sand scoops. Have a good trip.

I found this video on youtube that mentions ground balance for wet sand at 1:31 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeXmrEPd_So[/url]
 
A lot of us are from PA. and yet there is no competition and you never see anyone out. Unless you plan on it anyway lol. A lot of us meet up all the time. Well a lot of us here in Southeast Pa.

Ive visited CA and its really some beautiful land but I like my PA mountains. :grin:
 
Calvin - Drop me a line when you want to go out. I've been in the hobby some 40 years (started really young) and always a pleasure to meet new people in the same area I reside. By the way, I'm in Vacaville so not too terribly far from you and have lots of decent spots between here and Sacramento that I'd be willing to share a hunt in.
